Organic Osteen Mangoes from Spain - 5 kg

🥭 What the mango really contains:

1) Rich in vitamin C

The number one asset of mango, and it's a strong one: 36 mg of vitamin C per 100 g, which is 46% of the reference intake. A 300 g Osteen mango provides you with about 110 mg of vitamin C. Vitamin C contributes to the normal functioning of the immune system, protects cells against oxidative stress, and helps reduce fatigue.

2) Source of folates (vitamin B9)

Much less known, and yet. With 43 µg per 100 g, mango is a source of folates - a vitamin that plant-based diets generally cover well, but which is rarely in excess. Folates contribute to normal psychological function, normal blood formation, and the cell division process. They also contribute to the growth of maternal tissues during pregnancy.

3) Carotenoids, including lutein and zeaxanthin

It is the deep orange color of the Osteen's flesh that signals it to you: beta-carotene, lutein, zeaxanthin. These carotenoids are the subject of numerous research studies, particularly concerning vision. Let's be honest: to date, no health claims are officially authorized in Europe for lutein and zeaxanthin. Research is ongoing, the results are interesting, but no promises can be made yet. What we can say is that mango contains them, and that's one more good reason to eat it.

4) Vitamin C increases iron absorption.

It is widely read that mango is very rich in iron. In reality, this is false: it contains very little. But - and this is much more interesting - its vitamin C, on the other hand, increases iron absorption Non-heme, the type found in plants. Specifically: adding mango cubes to a lentil salad or sprouted seeds, and you significantly improve the iron absorption of this meal. It's a simple habit, and particularly useful when consuming little or no animal products.

5) Vitamin C, collagen, and skin

Vitamin C contributes to the normal formation of collagen to ensure the normal function of the skin, blood vessels, bones, and cartilage. That is well established. However, mango does not "rejuvenate" the skin and does not replace sun protection-don't listen to what is said about this.

6) A moderate glycemic index

The mango has a very sweet taste, yet its glycemic index is around 50 - a moderate GI, comparable to that of an unripe banana. Its fibers and water slow down the absorption of sugars. That said, each person reacts differently, and if you are concerned about diabetes or glycemic monitoring, talk to your doctor or dietitian rather than a commercial website.

7) Fiber, water, and true nutritional density

1.6 g of fiber per 100 g, about 83% water, 60 kcal. A beautiful 400 g Osteen, therefore, contains approximately 6 g of fiber and the equivalent of a large glass of water, with vitamins as a bonus. Honestly, as a 4 PM snack, it's hard to do better - and it's far more interesting than a chocolate bar.

A varied and balanced diet and a healthy lifestyle are important. The beneficial effects mentioned above are achieved with a consumption of about 200 to 300 g of mango, as part of a balanced diet.
